Ornate Dwelling Series encourages viewers to be enclosed and enveloped within the space. Carrying the theme of utopia and the other-worldy, Ornate Dwelling reinvents the space to displace the public from reality, to look up and daydream in a world away into their own fantasies. As we enter this meditative state, this medium guides audiences to a stepping stone in another world, another city and another place. Whichever home they choose, becomes their alternate reality.

Shanna acknowledges that the work she does is on the traditional, ancestral and unceded land of the xʷməθkwəy̓əm (Musqueam), Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish) and Səl ̓ílwətaʔ/Selilwitulh (Tsleil-Waututh) peoples.
